On this week's Road Trip, some of the team behind the Nature: Accessible for All campaign told News 12 about a growing partnership leading a statewide effort to ensure that all people with disabilities, their families and allies can enjoy New Jersey's natural places.
The collaborative effort between the Pineland Preservation Alliance, the New Jersey Division of Disability Services of the New Jersey Department of Human Services, the Edward J. Bloustein School and Duke Farms aims to increase the public's awareness that accessible nature sites exist, to improve the accessibility of trails and natural sites, and to provide more information about these facilities.
